EDITORS COMMENTS
A Glimpse into 18th Century Dining: This print takes us back to the bustling atmosphere of Dolly's Chop House, a renowned eatery located near St. Paul's Cathedral in London. The scene captures the essence of city life during this era, with two men engrossed in their meal while two hungry dogs eagerly observe from beneath the table. Meanwhile, at another table, a gentleman sits absorbed in his newspaper, seemingly unaffected by the lively surroundings. The image showcases not only the social aspect of dining but also provides insights into fashion and interior design trends of that time. The well-dressed patrons don attire typical for 18th-century England as they enjoy their dinner amidst elegant furniture and decor. Intriguingly, we catch sight of a man gazing at himself in a mirror behind the tables—a subtle reminder that even amid communal spaces like chop houses, individuals still sought moments for self-reflection. A diligent waiter adds to the ambiance by bringing out a plate filled with delectable food—an enticing display that surely tempts all present. This remarkable piece is part of Henry William Bunbury's anonymous collection housed at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery. It offers an invaluable glimpse into British culinary history while highlighting aspects such as service industry practices and societal norms prevalent during this period.
